This is a doc-only patch which I hope will reduce the number of spi_master controller driver patches starting out with a common implementation bug. (As in: almost every spi_master driver I see starts out with its version of this bug. Sigh.) It just re-emphasizes that the setup() method may be called for one device while a transfer is active on another ... which means that most driver implementations shouldn't touch any registers.

On parisc machines, which don't have HIL, removing the hp_sdc module panics the kernel. Fix this by returning early in hp_sdc_exit() if no HP SDC controller was found. Add functionality to probe for the hp_sdc_mlc kernel module (which takes care of the upper layer HIL functionality on parisc) after two seconds. This is needed to get all the other HIL drivers (keyboard / mouse/ ..) drivers automatically loaded by udev later as well.

Bela Lubkin noticed that the statistics for send IPMB and LAN commands in the IPMI driver could be incremented even if an error occurred. Move the increments to the proper place to avoid this. Also add some statistics for retransmissions that failed, and some little helper functions to neaten up the code a little.

Commit ae46141f (NFSv3: Fix posix ACL code) introduces a bug in the calculation of the XDR header iovec. In the case where we are inlining the acls, we need to adjust the length of the iovec req->rq_svec, in addition to adjusting the total buffer length.

David Woodhouse authored
Commit 14f7dd63 ("Copy XFS readdir hack into nfsd code") introduced a bug to generic code which had been extant for a long time in the XFS version -- it started to call through into lookup_one_len() and hence into the file systems' ->lookup() methods without i_mutex held on the directory. This patch fixes it by locking the directory's i_mutex again before calling the filldir functions. The original deadlocks which commit 14f7dd63 was designed to avoid are still avoided, because they were due to fs-internal locking, not i_mutex. While we're at it, fix the return type of nfsd_buffered_readdir() which should be a __be32 not an int -- it's an NFS errno, not a Linux errno. And return nfserrno(-ENOMEM) when allocation fails, not just -ENOMEM. Sparse would have caught that, if it wasn't so busy bitching about __cold__. Commit 05f4f678 ("nfsd4: don't do lookup within readdir in recovery code") introduced a similar problem with calling lookup_one_len() without i_mutex, which this patch also addresses. To fix that, it was necessary to fix the called functions so that they expect i_mutex to be held; that part was done by J. Bruce Fields.
